  1. this single win is going to ruin the Jazz draft chances and set the franchise back god only knows how many more years. It is already an insurmountable 3 and 4 game lead on the other teams that WILL NOT get much better. Indiana is not trying. Washington is still bad. Brooklyn is tremendously bad. Memphis is horrible because Ja refuses to grow up and they traded away Bane. Pelicans are incompetent and horrible, Maverkcls are horrible due to Nico Harrisons incompetence AND he ruined the Lakers 2027 pick too, Clippers are old and horrible. The Kings are the Kings………I cannot believe there are so many bad teams.

    Get ready for another Cpdy Willkams in the draft! Utterly ruined the tank, ruined the rebuild. There is no reason to be a Jazz fan for another decade. Maybe ever. They will NEVER win a championship if they dont get lucky in the draft.

    In 20 years you can go back and make a video of "The shot by Keyonte Geprge that doomed the Jazz to an eternal rebuild".

    Welcome to being the Bulls! Forever mediocre!

  2. Love how Sensabaugh played the whole 4th qtr and overtime’s.

    Good to see him step up to the opportunity.

  3. Without Lauri Jazz could not survive 1ast overtime, Gladly Keyonte and rest get better looks bc Lauri was tired but still open floor for other. Still Keyonte was 50% bad and 50% great. Odd game. He still finish the game. Im suprise Giddeys numbers. I did not belive him at all.
